  • Looking for gold in New Mexico culverts is never easy! Hopefully I can be back out to all three soon instead of just the one. Our hobby is not a 50 yard dash its a 26 mile marathon, be patient out there!
    The link to the pants with the knee pads (have to buy them separately or make your own) is below:

    In case the link doesn't work they are LAPG pants, Atlas Style.
    Happy 2023 Fathers Day out there boys!

    I was detached to China Lake California many years ago and we did a Vagas then a Arizona Grand Canyon road trip(s). Wanted so bad to check out Culverts but never had the time. Squadron work schedule was tough and never was any time...always rushing.
    Those gravels where you said you did good before do look good. All depends on what is upstream of those. 👍

    • @Goldpan-SuntanNM

      Ive been to that culvert before its been hit or miss, its hard to predict exactly in which area to prospect. Typically the entrance is customarily the best part to hit (where I did) but did see where someone had already been there cleaning out the back end of it.... Will keep frequenting it though. Thanks for watching man!

    I could watch culvert panning all day . Definitely one of my favourite forms of gold hunting to watch . Did you take the dirt from the end or start of the culvert ? I may have missed you say that

    • @Goldpan-SuntanNM
      @Goldpan-SuntanNM  11 місяців тому +2

      I typically always start towards the inlet. However, when I entered into the culvert through the outlet I had seen someone had already dug that side up. Sometimes it can be hard to determine where the gold is due to how fast and heavy the water may flow through there and deposit it. I'll have some more culvert videos coming up as I've got 4 or 5 more of my regulars to go hit. Tha KS for watching!

    One good thing about that culvert material, its already basically "dug up" and classified! Were there a lot of black sands in it? I would definitely switch to 3 gal. buckets, especially if having to carry them up hill loaded! Lol

    • @Goldpan-SuntanNM
      @Goldpan-SuntanNM  11 місяців тому

      Id say it was medium range black sands for this area so kind of a pain to pan but not too bad. I didn't show them in the pan at the end but there was probably 6 or 7 tablespoons total in all those buckets. I think ill start saving it and throwing it on the black market ahahaha!

  • @broncobill_
    @broncobill_ 3 місяці тому +1

    Well look at it this way, there are 40 5-gallon buckets in 1 CY. and those buckets weren't all the way filled. so the math on this is 6 buckets .03/6 = .005 now take .005 and multiply it by 40 which gives you .2 ounces at $2k an ounce it's roughly $400 per CY. If you were to run 100 yards, which setup with machines wouldn't be nothing, that would be 40K so I think that's pretty rich material if you think about it...........

    • @Goldpan-SuntanNM
      @Goldpan-SuntanNM  3 місяці тому

      Wow thanks Bill yeah wished I could get that much material out of that place! Where the inlet of the culvert comes in that land is County land but like 40 acres past that is all thr claims which are really good. I drywash up there all the time and wished they would let me have a backhoe :) thanks for the comment and doing all the math behind the scenes thats awesome!

    @imdawolfman2698 2 місяці тому +1

    I'd say find culverts that don't have 3 feet of material that never moves, it is like having your ripples so full of sht nothing gets stirred up for years.
    Find steeper culverts that act like a sluice, with 2-4 INCHES of material so you aren't carrying buckets of overburden.

      @Goldpan-SuntanNM  2 місяці тому

      Oh I hear ya buddy. I have about 30 culverts I hit. Some are exactly what you describe. Shoot I even have one that has such I high slope I find thr gold at the end if it not at thr beginning hahaha
